I'm saying it because for fantasy purposes specifically they are basement, or basically basement, price, unproven centres compared to the premium options. Every year, we mostly all do it, the correct price at centre at the start of the year is the cheapest price unless there's an out of position premium option.
A decent score week to week from a 250k investment in a bloke who has barely played NRL as you point out is not a reasonable expectation. What they put up last week is the realistic expectation each week until they've established themselves, hopefully as good performers. Along the way, there's going to be these 18 20 point outings sprinkled throughout. The hope is at some point on that journey they can put a couple of good games on the board and get us done money to help enable us to go elsewhere.
They're bottom price dart throws that we hope can make some money while we wait to be in a position to get a proper solution to the position that is always the shittiest to deal with. One week in, we have a couple more points to consider. Bird (personally don't see the need to rush it) Hammer (if you think he's turned a corner) or Mbye (because omg he's a hooker now). Otherwise the centre landscape is really no different to when you picked your team last week.
I am glad you clarified this because #CentresLivesMatter
